Everything went and came in a Blur!

She's finally back. All assembled and good looking. I'm talking about my bike. The replacement front triangle came in anodized black. Either they figured that I would like the funkyness of having an ano front with a powdercoated rear, or they had run out of powdercoated fronts. I also took the opportunity to resize the bike downwards to a medium frame as the previous large frame was a little too big for me.

Due to the difference in geometry, I had to get a new fork to suit - a Rock Shox Revelation 130mm dual air. Doesn't she look nice leaning against the palm? My precioussssssss.....

The new front triangle comes with titanium links for the shock and a dkg seat clamp. Took me about an hour to tune the fork to my preferences but I reckon that once it breaks in, I would have to tune it again.

I can't wait until I go for a proper ride with my buddies. That'll be tomorrow!
